The hell? Okay, tired, yes, but this is the second day out of three that body has decided to knock us out. I got up this morning to go to lecture, because I had to, because I've been missing too much of that module of late, and ... I was a zombie. Which is wrong, because once I'm awake at all, I'm awake. I've always been that way. But today I couldn't get my head up at all. And when I came home from that lecture, I went to lie down for a second because ... well, because I needed to, because I was listing towards horizontal in the street on the way home, and I really, really needed a few minutes lie down, and ... now it's 5pm.

*head in hands* And I am still tired. I could lie down again right now. The hell, body? Where is this coming from? Unless we're catching up from the terrible insomnia at the start of this year, but if so that's one hell of a time lag! Or ... I don't think I'm sick. I'd know, right? Aside from the exhaustion and some aches in the bones which I think is because of being so tired ... nah. I can't be sick. Not with just that. I'm just really, really, incredibly tired.

The hell?

I have a small suggestion for trying to trick your body around.

Vitamin B complex. B-12 is enough, but the complex is a real good kick.

It's been shown to help not only fatigue levels, but what they call false fatigue from chronic mental factors.

I've gone off and on the B-complex over the last few years when I can't cope, just to keep myself from falling into endless fatigue on top of it all.

TMI warning: it turns your pee very bright yellow.

*blinks* Yeah? Okay. Might try that.

I'll tell you when I started taking it, and you can see why I think it really works.

It was a few months after P died, and even knowing I was pregnant couldn't draw me up out of the misery and wish to sleep forever.

We both seem to be having the trouble of sleeping through class/lecture as of late. For the last three days, our schedule has been very fucked up and we've slept through all of our classes.

*nods tiredly* Know the feeling. Heh. Really do.

It's like my body is gearing for the nighttime and not the day time. It's really obnoxious.

Heh. Bodies! What can you do? Mind over matter is all very well, but I think at the end of the day it's the body with the ruling vote.

Certainly seems to be in charge at the minute ...
